why there is not a windows general thread?
i mean there is a fucking thinkpad general, and there are way more windows user than thinkpad user
Cause people get really triggered when it's not linux

>>53480588
For the same reason there aren't "normalfags general" or "plebs general" threads on any board.
Besides, Windows is a poor tech-related topic. It's technology for people not interested in technology. It has no real following for the thread to survive, so shills can only attack other OSs in other threads.
Even if the general thread lived long enough without being about a specific Windows issue, it would most likely turn into "stupid questions thread 2" with even stupider questions such as "where do i find free crack", "how to unbotnet the botnet", "how do I virus", etc.

How? Old ThinkPads have a cult following. Windows is mainstream OS meaning nobody really cares about it or its particulars.
You can find solutions to most Windows problems by googling them. The real solution is always to install Gentoo anyway.

Going to get an SSD and make the switch from 7 to 10 finally. Should I get windows 10 pro or Enterprise LTSB? What's the best way to activate 10?
>>53483838
Enterprise lstb n in dual-boot with some decent gnu/linux distro. Use Mstoolkit for activation. Sucks to need windows.

Wangbloze fanbois don't come here to discuss wangblows, it's just trolls and paid shills coming here to derail the linux threads. Otherwise, they stay on >>>/v/ where they belong.
Installed Windows 10. 7 was better, but I've got Minecraft Windows 10 Edition. And achevements connected with Windows. It's cool. But the privacy problems aren't. It couldn't find my second monitor on first and got bad resolution. I could change only for worse or the same. There wasn't higher resolution. When Windows detected second monitor resolution changed to good.
I think Windows 10 would be good if it has good privacy policy and less bugs. I used Ubuntu for few weeks and it had less bugs than Windows 10. I don't know why people think Windows is better or easier than Linux.
>>53483910
Are you seriously dense enough to run windows 10 as your only OS? I understand it if you need it for specific software or games but using it for anything else is a pain.

Anyone use Cortana regularly? What do you do with her? It's one of the main reasons I'm considering switching to 10.
>>53493263
Know what's funny, the part of KMSpico which activates the windows is still functional once you clean it up. So basically the activator still works when you remove the virus part.
>>53493564
Cortana is a useless gimmick.

That's for windows office shit, not activating Windows 10, there's a different activator for 10.
>>53493784
I used KMSpico to activate my windows 10...
>>53493784
There are only false positives, because it's a hack tool indeed.
You can use KMSpico for activating Windows 10 enterprise and It's actually the preferred method - why bother with something shady if something ok just works.
+ windows 10 is that type of OS which if you don't activate it's not going to limit you any feature until forever.
>>53480588
Moved back to 8.1. Having some issues with 10's group policy filtering, and too lazy to figure it out at the moment.
Will migrate after Server 2016 hits RTM.

8.1 was very beautiful looking - but windows 10 is more efficient resource wise and on every single other level.

No fucking junk apps, that's it. The important thing is to have group policy, which home premium doesn't have.

There are always faggots that advocate permissive licenses and some alpine hipster. Also distrowars. The reason their thread has higher quality is that there are a few very knowledgeable people there that discuss things like kernel design, file systems, APIs and the like. There are also more questions that can be beneficial to everyone that lurks there, like new programs, neat hacks, scripts and advanced system administration. If we had people like that that used windows this thread could have potential. Unfortunately most people on here that are genuinely interested in technology run free Unix-like OS. Also most windows related questions are posted in /sqt/.

No. Linux general is actually useful due to the amount of things it has to offer. Go to the current thread and read the fuckhuge OP pasta. Some people need to help doing certain things in Linux.
Windows is nothing like that. Nobody needs help using Windows. Do you need help using Windows?
A Windows general would inevitably and very quickly turn into a bump fest general because there is quite literally nothing to talk about.
>>53498864
So what you're saying is that Windows just works?
Got it, thanks for that confirmation.
>>53498864
>Nobody needs help using Windows. Do you need help using Windows?
No but judging by posts on /g/ there are people that need help with it.
>>53498899
It's more like windows users don't have a lot of choice and therefore there's not much to ask.
>>53498899
You act like I've ever said it doesn't "just work". I've personally never had severe problems rendering it unusable, but that's just me.
Doesn't take away from it's many other severe flaws that Linux doesn't suffer from.
